Embodiment Construction

[0019] The micro-electromechanical vector hydrophone includes a sensitive conversion microstructure, a support body 1 for fixing the sensitive conversion microstructure, an encapsulation shell that is covered outside the sensitive conversion microstructure and sealed and fixed with the support body 1, and the sensitive conversion microstructure is contained in The middle part of the semiconductor substrate is etched with a semiconductor body etching technology to form a cross-shaped cantilever beam structure 2 and a micro-pillar 3 with a density similar to that of water. The micro-column 3 is vertically fixed in the center of the cross-shaped cantilever beam structure 2. The four-beam end of the zigzag cantilever beam structure 2 is provided with a conversion element 4, and the package shell is a sound-permeable rubber cap 5 made of a polyurethane potting material with high frequency, low attenuation and low water seepage through an acoustic potting process. The top of the acou...

Abstract

The invention relates to a hydroacoustic transducer, in particular to a micro-electromechanical vector hydrophone which solves the problem that the enhancement of the overall performance is affected by the encapsulating structure of the existing vector hydrophone. The micro-electromechanical vector hydrophone comprises a sensitivity-conversion micro-structure, a support for fixing the sensitivity-conversion micro-structure, and an encapsulating housing covering the sensitivity-conversion micro-structure and hermetically fixing the support, wherein, the sensitivity-conversion micro-structure comprises a cross-shaped cantilever beam structure and a miniature cylindrical body vertically fixed in the center of the cross-shaped cantilever beam structure; conversion elements are arranged at theends of the four beams of the cross-shaped cantilever beam structure; the encapsulating housing is a sound-transparent rubber cap made of polyurethane encapsulating materials; and polyurethane for fixing the top end of the miniature cylindrical body and the sound-transparent rubber cap is encapsulated at the top of the sound-transparent rubber cap. The invention increases the sensitivity of the hydrophone, improves the frequency response thereof and ensures the high signal-to-noise ratio at low frequencies by improving the encapsulating structure and replacing the conversion elements of the sensitivity-conversion structure, so that the hydrophone can show excellent performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an underwater acoustic sensor, in particular to a microelectromechanical vector hydrophone. Background technique [0002] The vector hydrophone is an important part of sonar detection, and its performance is related to the sensitive conversion microstructure, the weak signal extraction circuit, and the packaging structure adopted for the sensitive conversion microstructure to adapt to underwater work; among them, sensitivity and frequency Response is two very important indicators of hydrophones. The sensitivity and frequency response directly affect the performance of hydrophones. For example: the Chinese invention patent with the patent number "200610012991.0" discloses a "resonance tunneling bionic vector underwater acoustic sensor". It is manufactured, and its sensitivity and frequency response effect are already in the forefront of the existing vector hydrophone; and the current packaging structure for the application of t...
